    Service was very slow and very expensive for what you get. For a two year old they charge $33.00 and they get a cookie and two small chocolate based pastries and a small bowl of berries🥹 Was very disappointed

    Première expérience "afternoon tea" que j'ai souvent voulu essayer. Les bouchées étaient excellentes, le thé à la hauteur des attentes. L'ambiance était correct, tout au plus. Il n'y avait pas de pianiste et le niveau sonore relativement élevé. Le décor est joli, mais un rafraîchissement ne serait pas un luxe. Le service était un peu confus, je crois que nous avons eu 4 personnes différentes au service en plus de l'hôtesse. Est-ce que ça valait le prix? Je ne suis pas certaine.

    The value did not match the price. Drinks not on the menu were overpriced, and it was a very deceitful tactic. I am not pleased with the experience.

    I took my daughter for her birthday and it was wonderful. I have lived in Montreal for many years, so it was a treat to experience such an iconic tradition for the first time.

    Lilliana who was our tea time server was such a delight. She was so kind, efficient and gave the ultimate 5 star service. The Ritz is very lucky to have such an attentive staff member, she was the cherry on top of our experience! The food was excellent. The ambiance was calm, relaxing and clean, and the selection of music playing really set a relaxing tone. This was not my 1st time at The Palm Court but definitely my most enjoyable thus far.

    Déçu de mon repas ! Visuellement très beau. Mais malheureusement fade, manque de goût, pour l’étage salé. Pas d’effet wow ! Et franchement on nous sert une portion pour enfant. Prix déraisonnable. Fauteuil inconfortable. Vous devriez essayer l’heure du thé au manoir Hovey, Bien meilleur !
